I wonder if this is ment tot be a Spanish beauty in peasant costume. This pendant/brooch is set in silver mount. There are three hallmarks which I cannot decode. I like Limoges enamel because of the lively sparkling glittering colors. At the back: Limoges.
The background of the lady in deep red her costume colored in green with a little bit gold/brown co. In her hair a kind of pink flower.
Measure : 4x 3 cm.
The brooch has a trompet clasp this means from end 19th early 30th century.
The last photo is of all 3 of my Limoges jewels. Have you another idea of the time period it is made?

When I first saw your lady in green, very early with no coffee, I thought she was an elf or fairy. Then realized that it wasn't pointy ears, but a hat. I wonder at myself sometimes Agram, I really do.
Still coming over to play dress up!
